Indriyagrāma (इन्द्रियग्राम) refers to “all the senses”, according to the Amanaska Yoga treatise dealing with meditation, absorption, yogic powers and liberation.—Accordingly, as Īśvara says to Vāmadeva: “[...] Like a plantain tree, the great illusion, whose layers [of leaf sheaths] along with the mind and senses, perishes totally when it has produced the fruit of the no-mind [state]. When the wings, which are the in and out breaths and whose sphere of operation is all the senses (indriyagrāma), are cut off, the mind-bird being motionless [in the air], plummets. [...]”.
